Summary
We present an overview of models which couple a partial differential equation with a stochastic differential equation posed at each point of the physical space. Such systems in particular arise in multiscale models of complex fluids, but also in the modeling of emission and transport of photons for example. For each case, we mention the mathematical and numerical issues and indicate the main results obtained so far.
